Meh. It took almost ten years to get #3 rolling.

I really enjoyed #3. Yes, the ending was very satisfying.

I appreciate Sonnenfeld's quick entertaining movies. He has a way of giving us all of this information (including the sci fi elements) really quick, and not lingering on anything too long. Some people don't like this. I like seeing on every few years. I guess that I can say that he makes really good, empty movies.

Finally got around to seeing this a few weeks ago. I enjoyed it a lot more than MIB2 which was so bad that it took me this long to see part 3.

One question:
Once K was eliminated in the present and ceased to exist why was J still a member of MIB? considering it was K who recruited him in part 1 shouldn't J have still been NYPD? When K disappeared I half expected J to go to work the next morning and have no one recognize him.

He was probably just recruited by another MIB member.

It's kind of like how time shift was handled in the movie Frequency.

Everything around the person affected (J) changes, while he retains all of his memories.

I thought he was an anomaly. I remember the chocolate milk fixation. I think something was explained there. It's not like everyone in the world felt the change and stayed conscious about everything. Just J, for whatever reason.

this movie was so much fun and more fun then it had any right to be. i really had a blast from start to finish. i'm kicking myself for putting it off so long. just pure, mindless fun, with a dash of heart. Stuhlbarg was great, as was Brolin, of course, but really liked Stuhlbarg's Griffin character. liked everything about this actually. solid fun, solid action. i'm glad this did well overall with WW take. truly a blast.
